Carpenter Apron, Selvedge Denim, v. 5

I think this will be the final version of the carpenter apron. Now to make a machinists apron, and a general shop apron.

The denim for this piece is a narrow width 2x1 weave that's woven with a gray weft. It's pretty close in look to some of the vintage/antique pieces of denim that I have, though the texture is a little smoother and more even than the vintage stuff. I'm looking forward to making some vests and chore coats out of it.
